And it looks like they might be able to pull it off!
The Weinstein Company is poised to acquire Miramax from The Walt Disney Company after a meeting with Disney chief Bob Iger.
Harvey Weinstein met with Iger in an attempt to secure the deal to the tune of 600 million big ones — in cash!
Apparently Alec and Tom Gores from Platinum Equity and David Bergstein along with Deutsche Bank and a Saudi investor are also contenders for the purchase.
But everyone seems to think Weinstein will snag the company back that he founded with his brother 30 years ago.
Money talks!
